L530 with Centrino 6205 - compatible with 5GHz 802.11n?

I have L530 with Centrino Advanced-N 6205 wireless built-in. The computer does not see any of the n networks I have setup (either 2.4GHz or 5GHz). When I get advanced properties on the centrino adapter, the "Wireless mode" shows only a/b/g options and not n.
Is the 6205 adapter compatible with 802.11n? If yes, how can I enable it? I have the latest drivers installed thru Lenovo Thinkvantage Tools app.
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

According to Intel, that's a dual-band "N" card.
See their recommendations on setup here:

Two questions:
a) What type of encryption do you have on the router?
b) Are other devices able to connect with the router on the "N" networks?

  • Can anyone recommend a portable USB 3.0 drive with hardware encryption, compatible with OSX and Windows 7.  I need it for my MacBook Pro 13", 2012, running Mountain Lion

    Can anyone recommend a portable USB 3.0 drive with hardware encryption, compatible with OSX Mountain Lion and Windows 7.  I need it for my MacBook Pro 13”, 2012, running Mountain Lion & Windows 7 Ultimate - BootCamp.  I’ve heard that the Buffalo MiniStation Encryption does not work with OSX, is that true..?  I'd like it to work with both operating systems, using the built in hardware encryption.  Thanks

    You might find that posing this question in the iPhoto column is more suitable.   Not to say people here don't know about cameras but those who live with them tend to reside there.  If you're lucky, you might get Terence Devlin or Old Toad.

  • Does IPad 1 support 5GHz 802.11n..???!!!!

    Does IPad 1 support 5GHz 802.11n..???! or just 802.11a for 5GHz band.
    Thanks

    Yes it does support both 2.4 and 5 GHz. The specs N and to meet N you have to have both. If you look at the specs for the fourth generation (the latest one) iPod Touch it says "802.11n 2.4GHz only".

  • WLC with 2 WLANs, 1 voice @ 2.4GHz and 1 data @ 5GHz 802.11n

    I have a WLC 4400 series and am using 1142n APs.  Am planning on adding Wireless IP Phones such as 7921/7925 as well as a couple 9971's.  Is it possible to have 2 WLANs, one to connect the voice endpoints to running @ 2.4GHz and another WLAN with a different SSID for data clients @ 5GHz?  All data clients have 802.11n NICs and can operate @ 5GHz.  I have enough APs so that the lessened range of 5GHz won't pose any issues.  Ideally I'd like to see connection rates in the 240mbps-300mbps range on the data clients with data throughput rates of 100mbps+ (I don't think this ought to be an issue, I'm aware that wireless is half-duplex and that connection rates do not necessarily indicate actual throughput rates).  I am also NOT a wireless expert.  I'm still fairly new to working with the WLC and the managed APs as such.  
    The reason for 2.4GHz and 5GHz simultaneously is that the voice endpoints are all 2.4GHz radios, I believe 802.11b/g.  I also want to keep voice clients separate.  This way, I believe I can optimize one WLAN for data clients without having them "suffer" so to speak by having to operate at a lower level as the voice clients.  Also, I want the voice separate for quality there (separate voice VLAN).  If I am correct, 802.11n data rates can also be achieved @ 2.4GHz, but only using the 20MHz as opposed to 40MHz width.  So I'd like one WLAN to be 2.4GHz, 20MHz (voice) and the other WLAN 5GHz, 40MHz (data).
    I'd like to hav both WLANs broadcasted from all the APs simultaneously.  Am I correct that such a configuration is possible with the WLC 4400 series and Aironet 1142n APs?  WLC is running 7.0.240 btw, current stable.  I'm also starting with a clean config on the WLC.  All DHCP will be handled by an external DHCP server also.  Thank you very much for any suggestions/guidance on this.  Your thoughts are greatly appreciated!
    I'll be happ to supply any config information to assist with this, just let me know what is desired/useful.

    Thank you for your prompt response.  I only have 1 WLC, it is a 4402-50.  I believe that 7.0.240 is the most current release for that model.  I think anything higher I need to go to the WLC5508 (or vWLC?)
    Also, I wasn't aware that the 7921/25 were 5GHz, since they are both 802.11g.  Thank you for the information. 
    If I understand you correctly, I'm best creating 2 WLANs, but both at 5.0GHz for both data and voice?
    Also, sorry to confuse the issue further, but I was thinking about this after writing the original post, I'd like to also have a "guest" WLAN that supports both 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz for maximum client compatibility (as I have no way of knowing what tpye of WLAN NIC would be in guest devices).  Am I correct in assuming that I would create a separate WLAN for all these, including a separate SSID.  
    The part that is confusing me some now is the "AP Groups".  Do I leave a single "Default-group" and create multiple WLANs with that.  If I'm correct, this way I can push the WLANs and SSIDs out through all the WAPs in that group.  I want these WLANs to be available from any AP in the organization, not have some APs for one WLAN, other APs for another WLAN, etc.

  • Macbook Pro with Vista does NOT connect to 802.11n

    I have a Macbook Pro running Vista and a wifi Linksys WRT350 access point/router, which does 802.11b/g/n. The Macbook Pro only connect to the access point at 802.11g 54Mbps the access point is set to mix-mode. If I set the access point to only 802.11n, the Macbook Pro cannot connect to the access point. If I use bootcamp to load the Mac OS X, the Mac OS X is able to connect to 802.11n. The signal level is pretty good on Vista ad Mac OS X.
    Any ideas?

    Usually when connecting a camera only the SD card is mounted, so it is normal to see only the SD card mounted on the Desktop. The camera is not actually the device, rather the SD card (and interface) is. Apparently System Information does report correctly on the camera itself.
    Be sure to check at Epson's support site for an updated driver compatible with Lion. You can also download the latest drivers package from Apple: Epson Printer Drivers v2.9 OS X.
    Of importance is if the scanner is working. If it is working, then it really doesn't matter, except cosmetically, that the device is reported as a printer. You can report that to Apple via Apple Feedback.

  • Are all tv's with hdmi inputs compatible with Apple TV2?

    I am considering purchasing a new TV.  My older model Sony TV, even though it has an HDMI input, is not compatible with Apple TV.  Do I have to take my Apple TV to Best Buy and plug it into every TV I look at to determine if they are compatible? Does Apple publish a list of compatible TV's?

    I receive an errror message telling me that my HDMI connection is not HDCP compatible.  I contacted Apple Support, visited my local Apple Store (with my Apple TV2), and bought new cables...nothing works.  I cannot watch Netflix or stream movies I have purchased from my iMac onto my TV.  Very frustrating.

  • Loading external swf fonts created with fontswf, loaded with a Loader, compatible with iOS

    Let me immediately start out by saying that I do in fact have a current working solution for using embedded fonts, generated by fontswf and working in an AIR ActionScript mobile application, and also currently working fine with iOS.
    My current app needs CFF fonts, so I currently use the fontswf tool to pre-generate the .swfs using:
    fontswf -4 -a [SomeAlias] -o [SomeFont.swf] [SomeFont.ttf]
    and then I am currently embedding them in my app source code .as for compilation using:
    [Embed(source="/swf/SomeFont.swf", symbol="SomeAlias")]
    public static var SomeFontClass:Class;
    I then have no problem registering them using Font.registerFont(SomeFontClass) and everything works fine.
    However, I would prefer to take the use of these swf fonts one step further and load them dynamically using a Loader so that I do not have to take the hit of having multiple CFF font swfs embedded in the main compiled SWF and so that I could even load an unknown future set of fonts without having to supply them as part of the app build.
    Now I have seen and read many blogs and tutorials where people have exported font swf from Flash Builder where you add an explicit 'Class' name or even made standalone .as static files compiled into standalone swfs only including the two lines:
    [Embed(source="/swf/SomeFont.swf", symbol="SomeAlias")]
    public static var SomeFontClass:Class;
    so that you also have a 'Class' involved. Then people use some form of appropriate applicationDomain.getDefinition("className") as Class
    to pull out the class for the font registration.
    My question is, how does one perform the same font loading and registration of fonts using a Loader only loading the .swfs produced directly from fontswf?
    It seems only a DefineFont4 is tagged in the swf, there doesn't seem to be a 'Class' per se to call on.
    More importantly, iOS apps cannot load external swfs with code in them, so my understanding is any extra wrapped swf that would contain a custom Class technique would fail the iOS requirement of only having one main SWF with any ActionScript compiled code.
    Is there an alternative to the 'Class' technique by grabbing the DefineFont4 tagged resource from the swf and instantiating a proper working Font class from that? One that would still be compatible with the restrictions placed on AIR mobile apps running on iOS?

    Ironically, just after posting this, Adobe released AIR 3.5 beta onto labs, and added multiple SWF support for iOS.
    While this new support makes it easier to manage your content across multiple SWFs and technically allows you to use the class based separate .swfs for each font if desired, the system still requires that all these SWFs be present at compile time when making the final app .ipa for iOS.
    So this still doesn't solve trying to load fonts after the app is already built. For example, as part of a downloaded in-app purchase mechanism.

  • Does my brand new untouched macbook pro come with a program compatible with Microsoft word

    does pages come on a new macbook pro and is it compatible with ms word

    Pages & the other iWork apps are not included with new Macs, you must purchase them. They are very reasonably priced in the Mac App Store.
    TextEdit can open & save .doc files. You'll find it in your applications folder. If you want a free suite of apps compatible with Office, look at LibreOffice.

  • Is the new MacBook pro with nvidia 650m compatible with autodesk alias and 3ds?

    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me if the new MacBook pro is compatible with autodesk products?
    Alias requires open gl 2.00. Is this supported with the graphics card?

    The GT650 should be compatible with OpenGL 3.x or even 4.x depending upon Apple's drivers. As for the software in general it should work if compatible with Lion and 10.7.4. However, the software cannot yet take full advantage of the Retina display.

  • Compatible Gigabit Wireless 802.11n Routers?

    Hi,
    Is anyone aware which currently available routers with gigabit ports & 802.11n are proven to work with .n enabled MacBook Pros?
    I realise that depending on where you are in the world, not too many are even on the market as yet but I've read about a few, namely the Linksys WRVS4400 and the D-LINK DIR655 which are available but I can't find out if they will actually work with the MacBooks. Linksys are also bringing out what look like 2 great routers in the near future (WRT350N & WRT330N) but again, who's to say if they will actually work with non-Linksys kit.
    Any experiences appreciated.
